5 Things Your Daughters Should Know by Age 10

Looking back, what do you know now that you wish you’d known sooner? What do you still not know and wish someone had taught you? We all want what’s best for our girls. Teach your daughters what they need to know while they’re still young!
回首往事，哪些事是现在你的希望你早点可以知道的事情？哪些事情是你现在也不知道但是想要有个人能教给你的事？我们都想把最好的东西给我们的女儿.在她还小的时候教给她一些她应该明白的道理
1.They may dress like princesses, but they’re no damsels in distress.
她也许穿得像个公主，但是他们不会总是陷入困境
Every girl has her favorite princess. But real life isn’t always happily, ever after, and princes aren’t the solution to all of our problems. A little fantasizing is fun, but share some real-life heroines with them, too.
每个姑娘都有自己喜欢的姑娘。但生活并不总是幸福的，即使是以后王子也不一定能应付所有的问题。有些幻想是好的，但是也可以跟她们讲一些女英雄的故事。
2.How to play
关于玩耍
Play is great for social skills. It encourages creativity and problem-solving. It helps children figure out their environment, their world. Foster these opportunities for your children — and no, video games do not count!
玩耍是培养孩子社交技能的好方式。它激励孩子的创造性和解决问题的能力。能帮助孩子弄清她们的生长环境，她们生活的这样一个世界。多给孩子这样的机会---电子游戏不算在内。
3.How money works
关于金钱
If your daughters do not learn money management from you, they will learn it one way or the other — perhaps at the mercy of credit card debt or college loans. Start sharing your budget with them from an early age.
如果你的女儿不能从你这里学会管理金钱的办法，她们还是会用别的方式学会---也许是信用卡债或者是助学贷款。从小就跟她们讲讲你的理财方法。
4.How to share
关于分享
One of the first words little kids learn is “mine.” And so, our attachments begin. Daughters need to know the cycle of giving and receiving. Hoarding stifles this important process. Sharing their things will convert into sharing their time, sharing their space, sharing their gifts, and sharing their love. Teach them the beauty in this, and teach them how to graciously receive, as well.
有些小孩学会的第一个词就是“我的”，所以我们要从平时做起。女儿需要知道奉献和接受的这一过程。扼杀自私的思想是最重要的环节。分享她们的东西要逐渐转化到分享她们的时间，分享她们的空间，分享她们的礼物，分享她们的爱。教会她们这其中的真善美，也要教会她们如何接受。
5.How to communicate
关于交流
Have them write their own “Thank You”s. Be sure they are present when you make phonecalls for service needs. Help them participate in fundraisers, and encourage them to ask questions at the doctor and dentist. No matter what they decide to do as an adult, they will benefit from developing an ease in conversation.
让他们自己写下“谢谢”。当你打电话找人帮忙的时候要让她们待在你身边。帮助她们参与到某个活动的筹备过程，鼓励她们去问医生问题。不管她们成年后打算做一个怎样的人，她们都会从轻松愉悦的对话中受益。
